RDF data exploration and conversion can be exhaustive and challenging. There is a lack of tools and frameworks which are needed to achieve this. Moreover, Conversion of RDF data to other formats is hard and may require the user to install a lot of softwares, if such softwares even exist. SPARQL is used mainly to access data in RDF data stores. Forming queries in SPARQL can be complex and overwhelming for even expert users. We thus propose the use of an interactive Query Builder, using which a user can formulate a SPARQL query even if they do not have any prior SPARQL experience. This thesis, therefore focuses to address the above problems as well as provide a framework with a RESTful solution which will allow developers to develop their own exploration and conversion tool by consuming those RESTful APIs. This framework can be utilized by non-expert users and also expert users, who can extend this framework easily and personalize it according to their requirements. Using the APIs from the framework, RDF data exploration and conversion is achieved. A prototype of an interactive Query builder has also been developed, which consumes these RESTful API. Keywords. RDF Exploration, SPARQL Query Builder, RESTful and Linked Data, RDF Serialization, RDF Conversion 1 Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Problem Context and Motivation There has been a surge in Web technologies and cloud data over the past few years. More and more users are making their data available through Linked Open Data (LOD). A common framework, Resource Description Framework (RDF) is adopted for providing meaningful semantics to the data. RDF [AG+12] was designed to provide a common way to interact with various computer applications. Since, they provide a common RDF/XML format, there can be interoperability between different systems. The LOD data providers provide APIs for their data. These API services return data results in standard JSON and XML format. There are various tools available which allows the user to convert this data to some popular formats such as XML, JSON, Turtle, N3, etc. from RDF. Many open source tools and RESTful services are available which help the users in achieving these RDF to any conversions. But first, it is important that the user under- stands the underlying data structure. RDF has a graph structure in which the Data structure is not as rigid as its Relational Database counterparts. The data in RDF data stores can be queried using the standard RDF query language, SPARQL. Let us consider a use case. Lets say, a user has built a Health cloud software and has an internal database which stores all the data of medicines, diseases, etc. Now this database needs to be updated on a regular basis. Lets say there is a another service, which provides this data in an RDF format by crawling through libraries like SNOMED CT1. Now, coming back to the Health cloud user. Lets say the user needs regular SQL upload scripts to update his database. Also, he is not interested in retrieving all of the data available from the RDF data source.

  • Stephen Harrington Thesis
    PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE BEYOND JOURNALISM: INFOTAINMENT, SATIRE AND AUSTRALIAN TELEVISION STEPHEN HARRINGTON BCI(Media&Comm), BCI(Hons)(MediaSt) Submitted April, 2009 For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology, Australia 1 2 STATEMENT OF ORIGINAL AUTHORSHIP The work contained in this thesis has not been previously submitted to meet requirements for an award at this or any other higher education institution. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made. _____________________________________________ Stephen Matthew Harrington Date: 3 4 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the changing relationships between television, politics, audiences and the public sphere. Premised on the notion that mediated politics is now understood “in new ways by new voices” (Jones, 2005: 4), and appropriating what McNair (2003) calls a “chaos theory” of journalism sociology, this thesis explores how two different contemporary Australian political television programs (Sunrise and The Chaser’s War on Everything) are viewed, understood, and used by audiences. In analysing these programs from textual, industry and audience perspectives, this thesis argues that journalism has been largely thought about in overly simplistic binary terms which have failed to reflect the reality of audiences’ news consumption patterns. The findings of this thesis suggest that both ‘soft’ infotainment (Sunrise) and ‘frivolous’ satire (The Chaser’s War on Everything) are used by audiences in intricate ways as sources of political information, and thus these TV programs (and those like them) should be seen as legitimate and valuable forms of public knowledge production.

    Julian Morrow Co-founder of The Chaser; Entertaining MC and speaker Julian Morrow is a comedian and television producer and is best known for being a member of the satirical team The Chaser. Julian has made a career of public nuisance in various forms, co-founding satirical media empire The Chaser and joke company Giant Dwarf, as well as making TV shows including The Election Chaser, CNNNN, The Chaser’s War on Everything, The Hamster Wheel and The Checkout. His work has been nominated, unsuccessfully, for many awards, and prosecuted successfully in many courts. More about Julian Morrow: In recent years, he was taken to claiming credit for the work of others as Executive Producer of Lawrence Leung’s series Choose Your Own Adventure and Unbelievable, Eliza and Hannah Reilly’s Growing Up Gracefully and Sarah Scheller & Alison Bell’s The Letdown (which on the 2018 AACTA Award for Best TV Comedy). In 2012 and 2013 he lowered standards at ABC Radio National as host of Friday Drive, a program which led to huge career opportunities for its Monday-Thursday host, Waleed Aly. In 2015, Julian founded Giant Dwarf theatre at 199 Cleveland Street Redfern, a venue which has been described as “absolutely hilarious” by his accountant. Over the years, Julian has interviewed countless people whose cache he tries to cash in on in his CV including Edward Snowden, Christopher Hitchens, Sting, Nobel Peace Prize winner Leymah Gbowee, Marc Newsome and the curator of TED Chris Anderson. Due to the unavailability of several respected media commentators, in 2009 Julian was invited to give the Andrew Olle Media Lecture, an honour he later demeaned by creating The Annual Inaugural Chaser Lecture.

    FedUni ResearchOnline https://researchonline.federation.edu.au Copyright Notice This is an original manuscript/preprint of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Continuum in September 2020, available online: https://doi.org/10.1080/10304312.2020.1782838 CRICOS 00103D RTO 4909 Page 1 of 1 Comic investigation and genre-mixing: the television docucomedies of Lawrence Leung, Judith Lucy and Luke McGregor Lesley Speed In the twenty-first century, comedians have come to serve as public commentators. This article examines the relationship between genre-mixing and cultural commentary in four documentary series produced for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) that centre on established comedians. These series are Lawrence Leung’s Choose Your Own Adventure (2009), Judith Lucy’s Spiritual Journey (2011), Judith Lucy is All Woman (2015) and Luke Warm Sex (2016). Each series combines the documentary and comedy genres by centring on a comedian’s investigation of a theme such as spirituality, gender or sex. While appearing alongside news satire, these docucomedies depart from the latter by eschewing politics in favour of existential themes. Embracing conventions of personalized documentaries, these series use performance reflexively to draw attention to therapeutic discourses and awkward situations. Giving expression to uncertain and questioning views of contemporary spirituality, gender and mediated intimacies, the docucomedies of Lawrence Leung, Judith Lucy and Luke McGregor stage interventions in contemporary debates that constitute forms of public pedagogy. Documentary comedy These series can be identified as documentary comedies, or docucomedies, which combine humour and non-fiction representation without adhering primarily to either genre. Although the relationship between comedy and factual screen works has received little sustained attention, notes Paul Ward, a program can combine both genres (2005, 67, 78–9).

  • The Chaser Team
    The Chaser Team Satirical Entertainment The Chaser is a satirical media empire which rivals Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp in all fields except power, influence, popularity and profitability. The Chaser is the group behind ABC TV series The Election Chaser (2001), CNNNN (2002) and CNNNN Live (2003) which together have lost a host of Australian and international TV comedy awards. However, their credibility-building run of losses ended in 2004 when CNNNN tied with Kath & Kim to win the Logie for Most Outstanding TV Comedy. In 2005 they won the Logie for Most Outstanding TV Comedy with the hugely popular, The Chaser Decides (ABC). In 2006, the team returned to ABC TV with The Chaser’s War On Everything, which won them two AFI Awards (Best Comedy and Best Comedy Performer for Andrew Hansen), as well as several court appearances. The show returned in 2009. Extremely popular in the corporate arena, The Chaser Team offer a range of speaking and entertainment options tailored to client’s needs. As hosts and presenters, they are beautifully irrelevant with just the right amount of professionalism. As after dinner and keynote speakers, they can present custom-written satirical songs and parodies of corporate presentations including powerpoint and trivia quizzes. More about The Chaser: The Chaser was founded in 1999 as a fortnightly satirical newspaper produced out of a spare bedroom by The Chaser Team: Charles Firth, Craig Reucassel, Julian Morrow, Dominic Knight, Andrew Hansen, Chas Licciardello and Chris Taylor. Since those humble beginnings, the Chaser team has lost its humility and has produced ClassicTM comedy in all media, including print, online, radio, television and Christmas crackers.
